Good luck. Keep us posted. If you are going through South Dakota drop me a line if you need a garage and some tools. I also have a few spares. South Dakota is just about half between Seattle and India ...

I have a regulator off my 76. It was working when I rebuilt the bike and put in the rect./regulator system recommended by Pamco. Check out this thread

I did the rect/reg modification Pamco recommends on my 76 bobber over a year ago and it works great. Definitely the way to go.

Thanks Pete

Pumps, That is what I was thinking. She actually said we should get a scooter for our 15 year old son to ride back and forth to work, about 2 miles. With this bike though he would need to get a MC lic ...

Well I missed out. It has already been sold.
Now I wish somebody would buy this bike. I keep checking it out and getting more and more tempted.

B3 I agree most places in South Dakota are in the middle of nowhere. Get out around Buffalo Gap and you are in the middle of nowhere. When riding out there top off the tank every chance you get and ha ...

E mail sent. Thanks for the heads up Scotts. I don't live in the middle of nowhere but I can see it from here. My nephew does happen to live in the middle of nowhere. He also happens to have his dads ...

Nice work. It looks good. Don't rush the wiring.
Looking forward to finished pics.
Georelle.

Check out this link to a Craigslist post. LMAO

If I were him I might be tempted to keep the bike. It sounds like either way it is going to be tough g ...

It is spelled Georelle not Jor-El Wink

. I didn't think there was anybody else who knew that was Superman's father. For me it is a franken name for me and the better half.

Yes thanks to ...

Welcome and sorry to hear you got burned. I think you will find the motor is relatively easy to work on. It might be good to flush it out check the oil filters etc. and lap the valves while you ...

Welcome. That is a great looking bike.
You can get the exhaust at Mikesxs.com. It is the tapered muffler and replacement head pipes. I have the same mufflers on my bobber and I like the sound.
I th ...

Hilarious. Reminds of the guy I saw at Sturgis last year. At a gas station with the parking lot full of bikes this guy in a HD bagger was going to be cool and does a burn out and dumps his bike in the ...

I am using the front fender on the rear. It worked out pretty well. I basically cut one of the fender mounts and welded it under the swing arm to bolt the lower part to, then welded on some struts as ...

The Arm and Hammer laundry detergent powder is what you want for the elctrolysis. I used a little more then a cup to about 3.5 gallons of water. It can be found at Walmart as well.

That may be a possibility. It does sound like a chain slapping against something.

Thanks

I have been trying to track down a rattle. It sounds like it is coming from the engine area but not necessarily from the engine. It sounds like the kick stand is rattling against the frame, but it is ...

I had a stuck one. I left it in the frame and sprayed the pj blaster in the spark plug holes. Take the round left alternator cover off to get a wrench on the crank. Rock the crank back and forth until ...

HC That is a great looking bike. I like the front end. The entire look of the bike is right from the head light to the pipes. The tank looks great. Nice work!!! Now you gotta let me know how you got r ...

1. I did cut the frame and bent it down. But I also brought a scrap piece to the local steel supplier and found some pipe that would fit snug over. I used that to slide over the part I bent ...

I did my frame that way and had plenty of room under the seat still. And I have a little bigger battery then stock. I welded a plate onto the supports under the seat and made a battery box. I even had ...

Welcome Porq Chopz. Good to see another Sioux Falls bike on here. It looks like you've got a nice 2-1 exhaust on there. Good luck with the build. Keep us posted.

It has both kick and electric start. I would probably always use the kicker as i do on my 650. I don't know that I would trust a 6 volt battery to start it no matter what I had for a coil. And a ...

Pete.
I will try that one. That is also the one used on your ignition system so if it doesn't work on the Honda I will already have my coil to do the conversion on my '76 xs. I have been wanting to m ...
